Hi everybody,
I've recently purchased a copy of the excellent SuSE Linux 6.0 from The
Linux Emporium (in the UK) and i'm trying to connect two PCs via
token-ring. I'm using 2 IBM 16/4 token ring cards. Does anyone know if
these cards are supported?

select() returns ready-for-read if a listening socket becomes ready
for accepting:
fd_set readset;
struct timeval timeout;
int s_fd, a_fd;
/* Create/bind/listen */
for( ;; ) {
timeout.tv_sec = ...;
timeout.tv_usec = ...;
FD_ZERO( &readset );
FD_SET( s_fd, &readset );
if( select( s_fd + 1, &readset, NULL, NULL, &timeout ) < 0 ) {
/* Timeout or error */
}
if( FD_ISSET( s_fd, &readset ) ) {
a_fd = accept( s_fd, ... );
/* Do stuff */
}
}
... is sort of the basic framework for this kind of thing. Reading
the manpage for select() would be a good idea. I'm not too sure how
non-blocking sockets respond to this treatment, but it is probably in
the FAQ somewhere (http://www.erlenstar.demon.co.uk/unix/).

Use chat with the -v option and pppd with the "debug" option. Look in
/var/log/messages and /var/log/debug for chat and pppd messages respectively.
If there's no debug file, then configure for one in the /etc/syslog.conf file.
Something like
*.=debug /usr/adm/debug
will do the job, after creating the debug file with echo -n > /usr/log/debug
and doing kill -HUP `pidof syslogd`. "man syslog.conf" for some explanation.

Thanks, I will try this forthwith. However, I suspect that I will get

You can use the program 'frm'. It wont give the size of the mailbox but can
give the rest of info. you can store the output of frm in a file seperately
with the help of shell script.
for the size of the mailbox you can use the output of 'ls -l'.
frm is part of standard elm package.
search for it at ftpsearch.lycos.com.

Hi Michael,
This configuration will never work. You will need to ensure that any
addresses to systems in the collision domain off of your NIC2 (192.168.1.1)
are compatible with your existing subnetwork. That is, if you're using
standard class C subnetting (subnet mask 255.255.255.0) with the
192.168.1.0/24 network, you need to make sure that the network address falls
within the range of 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255. 208.123.164.170 can
only exist in the same collision domain as NIC1.
HTH,
Jason

Date: Fri, 05 Mar 1999 17:43:41 +0100
Hi, can anyone help with ideas, web-pages, product-infos on whether it
is or will become possible
in the near future to connect a few Linux Servers (typically two or
four Dual Pentium 450)
with a small interconnection network using Gigabit speed? Background:
we have parallel
simulation programs which critically depend on communication speed
(large data packages).
Now it seems Gigabit-Ethernet-PCI-Cards are available; are there any
known small
switches or hubs on the market for that purpose or can one connect two
of such cards
directly? I know that presently the 3C985 - Gigabit card is not yet
supported according to
the suse web-database. But that can't be a long time from now it will
be supported
probably, or what do you think?
Any hints, advice, ideas are very welcome, by follow-up or personal
email,
thanks a lot,
Rainer Spurzem

Date: Thu, 04 Mar 1999 17:59:50 GMT
I've inherited a KNE2000LC card. I plugged it in to my dual boot machine.
Using Q-Start I found a reasonable setting that worked under Win98:
ISA, io=300, irq=4
(I was only able to get it to work by setting some rom values (16K, D000).
It works fine under Win98 now. Under Linux (RH5.2) ne.c barfs all over it at
boot, saying something about an illegal id (42 42).
Here's the gross part: now my original network card (D-Link) won't initialize
DHCP under Linux anymore, even if I remove all trace of the new KNE card!
Help!
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

You may want to experiment with the MTU and related settings on both
machines. I've seen a bad MTU setting cause this problem before. In
Linux, you can type ifconfig and it'll show you, in Windows you have to
search the registry or download a program that tweaks those settings
(One is called PPPboost; most are made for people with dialup
connections
to speed it up, but work both ways).

Hello, I tried to install Linux (Redhat 5.2) for the first time, and
everything worked out fine, except the installation program cannot
detect my Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 ISA card.
After starting Linux, I tried to load the eexpress module from Kernel
Configuration in x-win, specified IO port address and IRQ. When I
restart Linux, I got following messages:
"eth0 : EtherExpress at 0x210 rejected : invalid address 000000000000"
I changed port address and IRQ with Intel config disk for a few times,
but I would get the same messages (different address and IRQ #).
I read installation guide and some HowTos, but couldn't find the
answers.
PnP is disabled on the card.
If anyone has suggestions on how to get the card to work, I would
appreciate it very much.

Can you give us more details about your gateway? If it does any
firewalling, than you probably need to make provision for FTP behind the
firewall..ftp gets a little messy in the way it uses ports.
What is the error message you get, exactly?

Yet Another Tired Topic...
I can't seem to get IRC working behind my IP Masquerading firewall. I've
installed two differant identd's that are supposed to work with ip masq,
and followed their directions, but to no avail.
The only way I can get it to work is if I use ipportfw to forward the
identd port (I think it was 113) from the firewall to one client
machine,
and run mIRC/Windows on that machine. mIRC has a built in identd, I
believe..
I tried applying that trick to a linux client, but it doesn't work.
One identd I tried was called midentd..The other I can't remember.
Is there anyone with any ideas on this stubborn piece of crud? :)

Subject: SOCK_PACKET support - where is it? (kernel option)
Date: Thu, 4 Mar 1999 15:01:33 -0500
I'm trying to compile dhcpcd, and it's said inthe README that I should make
sure my kernel was compiled with "support for SOCK_PACKET".
I tried looking in .config for 2.0.36 and for 2.2.2, and didn't find this
option.
The closest I could find was "Packet socket", which is CONFIG_PACKET. It's
the first one in "Networking options" in menuconfig. Is this the one?
There's also one just below it: 'Kernel/User netlink socket'.
Thanx for any input!

One client used "PC"+last six digits of the IP address. e.g. I has
PC034083 and PC034134. ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! We could never find each
other's machines.
At home I use names from the short-lived but terribly fun FRPG
DarkUrthe. (Therrindur, Maldor, Nyrene, Avoncourt, Thrangmar, Ammora)

You cannot use dhcpcd-1.3.x with 2.0.36.

Yup.

Not necessary for dhcpcd.

Forget the UMich server. They stopped maintaining it a couple years
ago. Use the OpenLDAP server instead. It's basically a new version
of the UMich code. www.openldap.org
